That looks like a great utility. I'm already planning a follow-up post based on what I've learned here!

I bought TotalFinder last week, nice app, I usually uninstall these types of replacement apps after about 5 minutes but i'm very happy - keep up the good work!

That looks really nice. I will try it out when I get back to my Mac.

For anyone who doesn't want to use Terminal for file system navigation, a Finder replacement is a must. I'm constantly amazed at how terrible Finder is at its (relatively simple) job. Windows Explorer set the bar pretty low though. There are a number of good Finder alternatives, each with their own perks. I won't steal your thunder here with a list, cause totalfinder is one of my favorites.

TotalFinder is awesome; but I want my rounded corners back. :(

I downloaded the TotalFinder trial a few months ago and used it for about 20 minutes before throwing a wad of cash at you. It's a really great Finder replacement. Especially if you're rocking a 13" or smaller screen. TotalFinder is the first app I install on a new machine.

When I tried it, I was annoyed that new tabs didn't open instantly; it seemed there was a significant delay before it opened. Also, when I had minimized windows and switched between Spaces, sometimes the finder window without the tabs would reappear unminimized, which was really annoying.

+1 TotalFinder. Couldn't live without it. Great stuff. Way faster than PathFinder.

I like it. I tried to pay you but I'm guessing your card processing is broken...

Going to trial it now and from the looks of it, I'll also probably be throwing cash at you very shortly. One pain point I find with Finder is that by default when you search, it doesn't search the local folder. Kills usability for me on multiple levels when I have to resort to Terminal.app + find(1).

  Are you using Snow Leopard? That option was added in 10.6. Go to Finder>Preferences>Advanced and you'll find it at the bottom of the window.

Excellent app. Is there a way to make this works with SizeUp? I'm heavily depended on SizeUp :(

  I'm SizeUp user myself and it works fine for me.

The only issue I have with TotalFinder--and I paid for it a while back--is that I would love to have the freeform visor mode, but have it correctly pop above the dock as it does for full-width instead of overlapping it. I know it's in your buglist but thought I'd mention it since you're here...
